I love reading The Tiger Who Came To Tea the thought of a real tiger in the house both thrills and scares the children!

I am a fan of Each Peach Pear Plum - read to my children and now to grandchildren too. Beautiful illustrations with lots to talk about with little ones

My granddaughter loves any princess stories or fairytales

My Grandchildren simply love "Twas the night before Christmas" and they love it at any time of the year especially as the excitement builds up the nearer to christmas it is! My children loved it too!

My youngest grandson is 2 and loves Zog and Room on the Broom. He can now repeat the words and we embellish the stories. He has a toy Zog now to cuddle whilst he has the story read. It's such a special time as they cuddle into you and chatter back. Because of lockdown he is living with us and now has a story from Papa, Granny and Mummy before going to bed. He also likes Thomas stories and the current favourite is Thomas Goes Crash as you can emphasise the crash. He knows the names of lots of the engines. We are a family who read a lot and I am so glad that all my grandchildren love books.

The Quangle Wangle's Hat - I used to read it to my daughters when they were small and I can still recite it whilst the pages are upside down to me ... or indeed, without the book at all!

I loved books by Shirley Hughes and Judith Kerr, among many others, with my own children. Enjoyed reading them to the grandchildren too, along with newer books like The Gruffalo too!

the gruffalo is the favourite at the minute

Sleeping Beauty, it was my favourite too.

Anything by Beatrix Potter...... as l used to read them to my son.

I love reading The elves and the shoemaker. This was my favourite as a child and my grandchildren love it too.

We're going on a bear hunt.

We love the Dr Seuss books. Fox in socks is a particular favourite, such tongue twisting fun!

Never got the chance to read to my step-child due her age when I married her dad, looking forward to reading to her children, I will be happy with that.

The one I like reading is the one I am writing each week during lockdown. It is their family history, back to great grandparents and stories of what their mum got up to. When she was naughty, things she did. They live it and my daughter said she didn’t know half the stuff. I am saving it and will make it into a book(let).

The Magic Faraway Tree by Enid Blyton. It was a book I loved as a child and read to my children. To be able to read it to my grand-children brings back wonderful memories that I hope will stay with them forever.

Mr Men and Little Miss! Fabulous fun!

The Gruffalo because the story and illustrations are so beautiful

I m loving reading Watch with Mother Stories to my 2 yr old granddaughter. She loves Bill and Ben and I’ve made some characters from card that she can add to a landscape frieze I also made for her. I’m looking forward to reading Heidi to her, that was my favourite as a child.

My grandchildren love The Very Hungry Caterpillar. We read and reread it constantly. They love drawing little faces on the end of their fingers before putting them in the holes. Books are wonderful and give children ( and adults) hours of pleasure.

Black Beauty as it reminds me of my childhood.

My 5 month grandson loves his board book "Chuffa Choo Choo- the bright red train going on adventures gets him excited!
